Designed in collaboration with legendary bassist and producer Amos Heller, Kaamos blends a powerful distortion with octave-down tones.
 
Real-time routing controls let you shape your signal path with ease—stack effects in series for rich saturation or run them in parallel for intricate, layered textures. A movable effects loop, configurable in three distinct positions, opens up new possibilities, while a dedicated sub-octave output unlocks creative multi-amp setups. Every detail is precision-engineered to put you in complete control of your sound.
 
Out of the minds of the geniuses at Darkglass and 4-string guru Amos Heller comes the Kaamos: an extremely thorough and versatile bass distortion and octaver pedal. A perfect blend of Darkglass’s dual-distortion-engined Alpha Omicron pedal and a powerful octave-down design, the Kaamos roars with earth-rattling intensity. But the real beauty of the Kaamos is its versatility, affording bassists series and parallel effects routing with an octet of tone-sculpting parameters. Plus, the Kaamos delivers equally impressive capabilities with its diverse connection array, supplying not just standard 1/4-inch I/O but effect loop Send/Return, a balanced XLR output, and even a Sub-octave output for multi-amp setup integration. For complete tonal control onstage and shaping possibilities in the studio, few bass pedals can hold a candle to the high-powered Kaamos from Darkglass.
